Dentistry must work out a program to meet the social demands confronting the profession, or the dental profession will disappear into the clouds," said Dr. Leroy M. S. Miner '14, Dean of the Dental School, in a recent speech.
"If we work out our program before the government interferes the government will have no need to interfere," he said.
Miner stressed that dentistry cannot be dissociated from any public health program.
Defending the profession of charges, which he said were formerly brought, of failing in social-mindedness, he cited the increasing interest of dentistry in public health.
